Treatment Guidelines for NMIBC
Current treatment guidelines support the use of a single dose
of adjuvant intravesical chemotherapy for low-risk patients
with NMIBC because of its ability to reduce the risk of tumor
recurrence [14, 16]. A meta-analysis of 7 randomized clinical
trials found a 39% decreased odds of recurrence at a median
follow-up of 3.4 years in patients who received a single
postoperative instillation of chemotherapy versus patients
receiving TURBT alone [45]. In 2005, a review by an interna-
tional consensus panel found that the risk of recurrence can
be reduced by 50% at 2 years and by 15% or more at 5 years
with a single dose of adjuvant intravesical chemotherapy
[43]. Accordingly, the panel recommended a single dose of
intravesical chemotherapy, ideally within 6 hours, and no
more than 24 hours after TURBT, with the exception of
patients with a suspected bladder perforation [43].
For patients with a small-volume, low-grade Ta bladder
cancer, the American Urological Association (AUA) guide-
lines advance an initial single postoperative dose of intravesi-
cal chemotherapy as an option [16]. The EAU recommends 1
